40 Questions with: Tony Hynes, CEO

Say hello to the new CEO of Blanc & Otus, Tony Hynes! He’s smart, he’s British, and he says things like “savagely overpriced.” But Tony has been in the US for 18 years now and is becoming quite settled in his American life. He binge-watches The Walking Dead, he has opinions about Uber vs. Lyft, and he orders Chinese takeout. He is even a U.S. citizen! (Note: the “I Voted” sticker). Yet somehow he’s never heard of a tootsie pop…?

Tony enjoys taking the ferry to work every morning and reading The Guardian for his daily news. How Tony wound up in PR, you ask? He doesn’t know, but he blames his sister (and we thank her!). Want to know more? Watch Tony’s Q&A video, below!
